Welcome.
Not from UK or Kentucky, but I do think that Kentucky produces an incredible number of knockout talents, unique people with gifts big enough for the whole world.
What can you say about The Everly Brothers, Sam Bush, George Clooney, Hunter Thompson, Rosemary Clooney, Johnny Depp, Tom Cruise, Patricia Neal, Adrian Belew, Bill Monroe, Ricky Skaggs, The Judds, Merle Travis, John James Audubon, Edgar Cayce, etc...
America without Kentucky would be a lot less of America.
